How to get through airport security fast when traveling to Kailua-Kona
If you like the thought of spending more time at the airport restaurants and less time wading through security on your way to Kailua-Kona, follow these helpful tips:

  • Be sure you know the whereabouts of your travel ID and boarding pass. You don’t want to hold up the queue when you’re asked to present them.
  • You’ll need to stop the tunes for a little while. Earphones need to be taken off and put in a tray for X-raying. The same goes for items such as coins and keys.
  • Everyday electronics such as phones, laptops and cameras are always put through the X-ray machine separately. Make sure they’re easily accessible.
  • When it comes to flying with gels or liquids, every passenger is permitted a quart-sized clear zip-lock bag to store containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
  • Consider the type of footwear you want to fly in. Slippers are awesome because they’re easy to remove when you’re at the security checkpoint. Try wearing some on your next flight!
  • The list of prohibited items is forever updating. Read over your carrier’s website to understand what is not allowed on board their aircraft.

How to find cheap flights

What is the best day to buy a plane ticket?

Airfares offered on Friday tend to be the cheapest, according to flight demand on Travelocity.ca in 2021. Purchasing your airfares on a Thursday or Saturday can also provide better value, however our advice if you’re looking to save money is to avoid booking on a Wednesday or Sunday. Our data shows that those two days have the highest ticket values on average, so keep this in mind if you’re browsing flight deals.

 

What are the cheapest days to fly?

Frequent travellers may already know this, earlier in the week is often the cheapest time to fly. Flights departing on a Monday are the cheapest of the week. Since flights towards the middle of the week tend to be more popular, this causes the prices to rise. This is why, on average, airfares booked on Travelocity.ca in 2021 were most expensive for Wednesday departures.

 

How far in advance can you book a flight?

Here’s the deal: It is typically possible to start comparing international airfares on Travelocity.ca up to 12 months in advance. However, it does depend on the carrier as not all airlines release their prices that far out. According to our 2021 flight demand trends, last minute planners can still bag a bargain with some of the cheapest fares appearing 2-4 weeks prior to their travel dates.

*According to flight demand on Travelocity.ca from January to December 2021. Savings are subject to change and may vary depending on selections made.

Flights To Kailua-Kona

As your flight arrives at Kona International Airport (KOA) and you disembark from the plane, chances are you'll feel like doing a hula dance. A tropical paradise, Kona is usually always dry and sunny, so it's the ideal place to sunbathe, surf, dip your toes in the cerulean ocean water, snorkel with manatees, play a round of golf or swim. At Kailua-Kona, you can shop or dine on locally caught ahi at one of the many restaurants while you enjoy the picturesque view of the surf as it crashes over the black lava rocks. After dinner, recharge your batteries with a bit of caffeine by enjoying a piping hot cup of locally grown Kona coffee.

To board the car rental agency's shuttle, go to the street located across from baggage claim areas A and B, where you will also find a bevy of taxis lined up curbside.
